Assignment 1 Part 2
There are two works in the art galleries that especially attract us so much than ever. One of the works is namely Protection and the other one named is It's true. We do realize these two distinct works in Artemis Art Gallery when we are doing a survey in that art gallery before and we found the surprising truth that both the artists are capable to do such a perfect works although they are still young. These two outstanding artists are Azimuddin Abd Manaf and Harold Reagan Eswar. We would like to tell about the background of these two artiest. First of all we are going to talk about Azimuddin Abd Manaf. He studies at UiTM. He is participating in the degree of Fine Art. He is a talented young artistic. He won a number of awards in his young career. Many of his art work were held in exhibitions. Most of his art work has shows his realist skills, as well as his exploration and experimentation of new thematic styles. He also finalist in this years Nandos Art Competition and he was selected as a top 10. For Harold Reagan Eswar, or Egn, is a self-trained artist from Sabah. He always puts all effort in his work to succeed in his carrier independently. Although he is full with artist potential talent but he did not get support from his parents, and so he academically pursued the closest subject to art that he could find, that is Architecture. He has been frequently participating in various exhibitions in both his home state of Sabah and KL in year 2009. He aspires to use his art as a mean to shape viewpoints on issue of the day.

Protection
One of the Azimuddin Abd Manaf works namely Protection that exhibit in Artemis Art is very meaningful. The work communicates his ideas obviously and directly. The title Protection is suitable for the work because it shows 2 environments beneath the work. One is being polluted and the other one is full of green layer of protection. It gives us a sense that we need protect the nature environment and avoid it by being polluted. The work also shows how he feels when he does his work. The art

shows that he hopes to protect the environment and avoid from polluting the environment all the times. He also hopes that this work can lead the next generation to aware the significance of the environment. It also shows the nature beauty of the natural environment if pollution never exists. Since pollution does exist in this world, it is impossible for us to change it, so, he hopes that try our best to reduce pollutions and take responsible to protect our environment and because it is closely linked to us. Our human being depends on environment and vice versa. He uses the oil paint method to draw Protection.

It's true
This colorful picture Its true by Harold Reagan Eswar tells the story of a domestic violence within the family system, how the elderly, the women and the children are treated. The caption Its true makes this clear. It suggests that this kind of hardships do happen at somewhere else without our knowledge. Harold Reagan Eswar gives us many cues throughout the work including but not limited to the expression of the victims. The building at the right side is somehow catch fire from the bottom of the building. Two of them waving their right hands and asking for help. This shows that there is some bystander around but it seems that nobody is trying to help them because none of them inside the picture aside from the victims. So, it implicates the seriousness of the situation. These residents are staying in a critical condition. From their physical outlook, I can make a warranted assumption that they are suffering and anguishing because they seem to be despair and helplessness. I can analyze that the administrator is not giving a priority to the safety of the residents. However, all these elements combine to create a distinct and logical overtones that signals that their human right is being violated and they are being threaten badly. He uses the acrylic paint method to draw Its true.

This two works have their own value and they are different with each other. So we would like to compare the both of the works and understand the messages they attempted to convey through their works. For the work of Protection, It has bring some message like aware the new generation of children to avoid from polluting the environment. It also conveys the message that the artiest hope that the environment stop being polluted. From this art, the artist has the idea to save our environment. For It's true, it has bring the message like reveal the cruel reality of some unfortunate people and those irresponsible of administrator. It is signaling us that somebody is suffering unfair in this world without our knowledge. Besides that, for the work of Protection, Azimuddin Abd Manaf prefers to use the oil paint on canvas to draw it because the oil paint on canvas can often be left exposed to air for several weeks without drying. He hopes that the painting over several sessions without fear of the paint drying up too early so he uses oil paint on canvas to draw this art gallery and also let it to feel smooth and liquid to his art. For the work of It's true, Harold Reagan Eswar prefers to use the acrylic paint on canvas to draw it because the acrylic paint on canvas is much faster to dry. He wishes to lengthen the amount of time it takes for the paint to dry so he uses acrylic paint on canvas to draw this art gallery to let it more style and solid. In conclusion, Azimuddin Abd Manaf is a people who like to preserve and conserve the environment because he does convey a message shows the significance of the environment by covering all the plants and river with a thick layer of protection to regard as the natural power of the plants. The one without a green protection like the railway seem obsolescence and filthy. So, when the train passed through the layer of green protection, the train gains a refresh into a new, fresh train than ever. Since he is someone who loves environment, he definitely hopes next generation can aware the important of the environment since the environment has a special ability to refresh. Besides that, Harold Reagan Eswar is totally a different person with Azimuddin Abd Manaf because of their unique traits. He is sympathy and bold because he dares to reveals the reality of some unfortunate people who suffer from hardship caused by some irresponsive potentate administrator. In addition, he is sympathize towards the people because they were threaten badly and not given their right as shown in his work. Although their painting style and characteristic are different, but both of them are young artist and a good future is awaiting them at the place ahead. It is undeniable that they are really successful artist.
